SWIFT Knowledge Hub

A knowledge hub grounded in real‑world change

One of the main outputs of the SWIFT Program is the Knowledge Hub, designed to keep learning closely connected to real‑world change in Ethiopia’s finance sector.

Working with financial sector institutions including banks, microfinance institutions, capital market operators, and academia, the hub brings research and practice together. It helps financial trainees remain current with emerging trends, regulatory shifts, and innovations in financial inclusion.

By documenting pilot projects and lessons from Ethiopia and beyond, and by conducting targeted research, the Knowledge Hub turns what works in the field into practical insights. These insights directly strengthen training content across all SWIFT academies and are continuously updated into curricula and shared through digital platforms and sector learning events.

Research themes will be identified shortly, with outputs shared as they become ready.
